Description of the problem | I bought this car used in april 2016, within 72 hours i noticed it was making some horrible noises. My family mechanic said the idler belt tensioner was bad, multi motor issues, 2 fuses were blown, 2 bad window motors, ac was not super cold and the airbag recalls were all still present. I took it back to the dealer to get serviced and one of the employees wrecked it in service and no one told me so i found it when i got home, they kept my car for close to 5 weeks to repair it and then take it to an autobody shop since the dent was bad enough were the rear quarter panel needed to be replaced. Now that i have it back, i have experienced multi times where the power steering goes out in the rain. And today the ac stopped working. I am not saying this is the case for everyone but after researching it, it does appear i am not the only one with negative comments about these cheaply made "american" suv's. I am a single mother and although i make good money- i do not have enough saved up to take it back to the shop for repairs. I am extremely disappointed in the dealership and chevy. |
